Chapter 383 Miscalculation! (2)
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment." Yao Pingting kowtowed to thank her, her words were neither humble nor overbearing.

Han Qian watched Yun Shuo leave, Fang bowed his head and said to Yao Pingting, "Miss Yao has worked hard, go in and have a drink."

"Thank you, empress." Yao Pingting bowed, raised her hand to help her maid get up, and followed the empress into the cabin.

Everyone stood up and took their seats.Han Qian asked Su Lan and Gu Ningshuang with a smile: "Pingting's song is over, which one of you will come first?"

The emperor had already left, Gu Ningshuang lost all her thoughts, and felt that there was no need to argue with Su Lan, so she stood up and said, "Ningshuang is willing to listen to Princess Su's wishes."

Su Lan was troubled in her heart. After hearing this, she smiled disdainfully: "Since you said that you are humble, let's be the last." Han Qianfu said, "Sister Queen, Su Lan comes first."

Han Qian smiled and nodded, "Yes."

Su Lanfu stepped out of the cabin behind him, but also caressed a piece of "Zhongtian Song" very attentively.

The bright moon is in the middle of the sky, and thousands of households look up.

As soon as Su Lan started, Wei Xiyue sighed leisurely: "Princess Su has such great ambitions, she actually wants to go straight to the sky."

Han Qian didn't know much about rhythm, but she wasn't stupid.She already knew Su Lan's thoughts clearly, and after listening to Wei Xiyue's words now, and listening to the piano music carefully, she also understood a little bit.

Wei Xiyue saw that Han Qian didn't speak, her expression remained indifferent, so she didn't say any more.

Su Lan's Zhongtian song ended with a high-pitched and long melody, and everyone's emotions were mobilized. Both Han Qian couldn't help but applaud for this song.

Su Lan entered the cabin and kowtowed again: "My daughter's piano skills are terrible, and she made a fool of herself in front of the empress."

Han Qian smiled and said, "I've never heard such a majestic qin music before, and I really learned a lot today." After speaking, Han Qian turned to look at Yao Pingting, and asked, "What do you think, Miss Yao?"

"The song "Zhongtian" by Princess Su is indeed grand and magnificent, and it is beyond the reach of ordinary people. However, as the first of the six arts of a gentleman, Guqin should focus on indifference and tranquility. If it is more utilitarian, it will fall down. Take it." After Yao Pingting finished speaking, she got up and nodded slightly at Su Lan, smiling slightly, "Pingting is a straightforward person, she doesn't know how to cover up her words, please invite Princess Su Haihan."

Hearing this, Su Lan couldn't help but get angry, and said with a sneer, "Ms. Yao really deserves to be the daughter of the Yao family. No matter what she does, she is very confident."

"Empress Mingjian, what Pingting said is only Pingting's own opinion, and has nothing to do with her grandfather and elder brother at home. Is Princess Su's remark a suspicion of anger?" Yao Pingting smiled lightly and looked at Han Qian.

Han Qian waved her hand at Yao Pingting and said, "I like Pingting's personality very much. One is one, the other is two. There is nothing to hide, and there is nothing to hide." After finishing speaking, Han Qian turned to look at Su. Lan asked with a light smile, "Princess Su, what do you think?"

What can Su Lan say?How dare she say anything?Even though she hated Yao Pingting to death, she did not dare to disobey the Queen's words at this moment.

"What the empress said is that the subjects should remember the teachings of the empress." Su Lan kowtowed.

"Well, step back." Han Qian said lightly.

"Yes." Su Lan kowtowed and retreated to her seat.

Han Qian raised his glass and said with a smile, "Come on, let's have a drink and then listen to Miss Gu's good song."

After listening to Yao Pingting's words just now, Gu Ningshuang saw that Su Lan had run into trouble with the Queen, she felt a little less lonely in her heart, and she also became more aware of what she was doing—the status of the Yao family was unshakable, even the Su family You have to lean back, let alone be able to compete with yourself.So, she originally wanted to play "Friends" again to compete with Yao Pingting, but at this time she changed her mind and changed to "Pingsha".

And her playing of "Pingsha" is also relatively restrained, without those gorgeous skills, this piece of "Pingsha" has a moving part that has washed away all the lead.

"This song is more beautiful than the one last night." Han Qian said to Yao Pingting, who was sitting next to him, in a matter-of-fact manner.

Yao Pingting stood up and replied, "The empress is right."

"Some things, if done deliberately, are contrived, and it's not the work of a smart person to sacrifice the basics and seek the last. It seems that Miss Gu is really a delicate person."

"The Empress has sharp eyes. Miss Gu knows everything, she really is a smart person." Xiao Lianqing smiled lightly.

Gu Ningshuang came in after playing a song and returned to her seat. Han Qian said to the girls with a smile: "The three songs are over, and I think everyone has their own calculations in their hearts. You don't have to say who is better. You don't have to say it. Write small characters on the paper. In the end, the one with the most paper will be the winner. And this time, we will only choose the first place, not the second place. How about it?"

Everyone naturally agreed.

So a court lady distributed the flower paper to everyone.Everyone has a share, even the maids behind everyone are not left behind.

These aristocratic ladies were carefully taught since childhood, and the maids around them also studied at home for at least a year or two, and they knew a few words.Naturally, they are all secretly happy to be so respectable today.

It's just that maids are maids after all, and no one can go against his master's wishes.Therefore, the people behind everyone carefully looked at who their master wrote, and they all wrote that person's small characters one after another, folded them up and handed them to the plate that the maid came to collect.

Originally, Su Lan and Yao Pingting had a good relationship, and the Su and Yao families could be regarded as family friends. No matter how good the Gu family was with the third old lady of the Su family, it could not compare to the staggered marriage relationship between the Beihou Mansion and the Yao family.However, Su Lan was really unhappy when Yao Pingting said a few words just now, and she didn't want to write about Yao Pingting when filling out the note.

Liu Ying had been staring at Que'er, Su Lan's personal maid, before she got the flower note, she quietly gave Que'er a golden ring.

Que'er has been by Su Lan's side for many years, and she is also a scheming girl. Liu Ying's meaning is self-evident, and she took advantage of it, so she took advantage of the time to pour tea for Su Lan and whispered: "Miss, Miss Yao can It's not so easy to offend, let's borrow someone else's hand..."

Su Lan frowned and looked up at Que'er, Que'er took the opportunity to glance at Gu Ningshuang, then blinked at Su Lan.

"Understood." Su Lan understood. Although she felt a little unwilling, she really couldn't go against Yao Pingting at this moment.

Because the family not only has two grandfathers, the envoy of the Southeast Economic Strategy and the Minister of the Household Department, but also the aunt of the Ninghou Mansion.What's more, the power of the third house of the Su family has the momentum to overwhelm their eldest family. Su Lan, as the eldest daughter, knows it all, and she is even more jealous in her heart.

After weighing again and again, Su Lan frowned, took the pen handed over by Que'er, and wrote the word 'Ningshuang' on the flower note.
